Hey all, GBAtemp's official village idiot here. I don't know how exactly to start, and I don't want to brick my DSi, my Acekard 2i, or my shiny new aqua blue 3DS.
Basically, my DSi is running firmware 1.4U (not 1.4.1!) and my acekard is still is the Danny Phantom card. My AKAIO is version 1.8.6, and HW 44, SVN:1074. No idea what the HW and SVN numbers mean. Guessing HW stands for hardware. I figured, if it ain't broke, I'm not going to fix it unless I need to do something else with it. Hence why I haven't updated. Anyway, my storebought 3DS is telling me 1.1.0-0U which I assume is the latest.
I want my current AK2i flashcart to play my old roms, DS, gb/gbc, NES, genesis on my 3ds. I assume that my card the way it is isn't compatible with the 3ds. Is there a way to make my AK2i flashcart play on the 3DS? I haven't tried because I'm afraid of bricking my console. I don't want a $169 paperweight, especially since I'm having so much fun with Ocarina of Time 3DS. Please walk me through this step by step, because I get so paranoid when updating firmware. I really can't afford to mess anything up.
I also see on the Acekard news page, and haven't seen an update about this issue.
Does this mean I won't be able to update as such?
I also don't think this matters much, but I'm running Windows 7 on my laptop. I also downloaded this - Firmware Update of AK2i for 3DS2.1 and DSi1.4.3 for the hell of it, and unzipped it, and didn't find the readme mentioned on the Acekard site packed in there... Thanks

HW44 Can't Update for 1.4.3 Temporary
Update for DSi1.4.3 can't support AK2i of HW44 temporary now. We're still looking into it. Please be patient. And we're sorry for all the inconvenience caused.
